I was pretty obsessed with dinosaurs as a kid too but it was because of seeing Jurassic Park at a young age. I was aware (as aware as a five year old could be) of this movie, but would have no idea of how to see it

I’ve seen this movie. But thats cuz I’ve seen just about every dinosaur movie ever made. I watched the first ‘Land Before Time’ movie EVERY DAY as a child and ran around on all fours claiming to be a triceratops. My favorite song was ‘Walk the Dinosaur’. I was and have always been a dino-sympathizer.

I feel for you on trying to re-watch your old childhood memories. My own formative dinosaur years were dominated by the original Land of the Lost, and my attempt to watch that last year was amazingly painful.

Kinda funny to look back on this and realize what a cruddy ending that is (yet I’m sure when I first saw this I probably didn’t think of the closure from an adult standpoint since I probably just thought the whole thing kicked ass when I was 7 or 8).
